Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are members of the Hound Group and are a type of breed known as "sausage dogs" due to their long and thin bodies. They were originally bred to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals, however today, they are primarily kept as companion dogs. The breed can come in several colors and markings and three distinct sizes: standard, miniature, and kaninchen. These friendly and lively dogs are well-suited to families, but they can be stubborn sometimes.
The Dachshunds have a beautiful coat that is short and thick, with a distinctive shine. The standard Dachshund has an attractive short-haired coat, which is smooth, flat and silky to the touch. The colors of the coat can vary from black, tan, reddish, and even piebald. Long-haired Dachshunds have a gorgeous, long coat which is sleek, straight, and more lustrous. The long haired Dachshunds' coat is also much thicker than that of the short-haired variety.
The best food for a Dachshund depends on a few factors, including age, activity level, and overall health. In general, quality, natural ingredients are key. Look for food that provides appropriate gluten-free protein sources, whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, and supplemented vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids. Wet food in combination with dry kibble is often ideal for a balanced diet and provides additional moisture to keep your pet hydrated.
Before bringing your new dachshund home, it's important to create a safe and comfortable environment so they feel welcomed and secure. First, make sure any wires and cables around their reach are properly tucked away and secured to avoid any chewing injuries. You'll also want to puppy proof corners and hideaways of your home, as they have a tendency to explore and wander. Third, block off any area with small entrances or tight spaces in which they might become stuck. Finally, have their sleeping area, food/water dish and bathroom area prepared and ready before they arrive.
Dachshunds, also known as "wiener" or "sausage" dogs, can come in any size from the standard size to miniature and even toy sizes. The standard size typically has a body length from 8 to 9 inches at the shoulder and weighs up to 32 pounds; the miniature size Dachshund has a body length of up 5 to 6 inches at the shoulder and a weight of 11 pounds or less; and the toy size has a body length of 4 to 4 ½ inches at the shoulder and weighs up to 10 pounds.
Generally, Dachshunds tend to enjoy swimming, but it depends on the individual dog. Some Dachshunds may love the water and be willing to take a dip at any chance, while others may be more hesitant and require patience and positive reinforcement to learn to love swimming. Regardless, it's important to introduce your Dachshund to swimming in a safe and controlled way, like at a beach or a pool. Before getting in the water, it's important to make sure that your Dachshund has plenty of energy and is comfortable with its surroundings.
Yes, Dachshunds can be great companions for other pets. Socializing a Dachshund from an early age can help them get used to the presence of other animals in the household. When introducing new pets, it is important to take it slow, allowing the Dachshund time to adjust to the new environment and become comfortable with other family members. Proper training and management of the dog's behavior can also help ensure that your Dachshund and other pets can peacefully coexist.
Training a Dachshund requires dedication and consistency the amount of time and effort you put into it will dictate the results. Generally, it's recommended to dedicate at least 15-20 minutes per day to training your Dachshund. You can break this up into shorter durations to focus on specific commands or abilities, or give it all at once. Make sure each training session includes plenty of positive reinforcement, such as treats, verbal praise, and physical affection.
